Hei
After i got the new update, it seems iv got bad internett connection. So i know it sounds wierd, but but its both with 5g and wifi at home. Normaly there is no buffering etc but after update when i look at reels it often stops one second in, and when i scroll facebook i often now can get just grey photos some photos are ok but when i scroll more and there is gray then fine etc. this is with both wifi and 5g.
Since update to 16.5.1(c), safari searches are tiny and subjects are over shadowing the content preview of page. IOW, The bold text of a search is on top of the non-bold text that is usually underneath the subject of the website. For example if I look up.. “Ice Cream”, normally I’d see a bunch of results that include “ice cream”. Each result would show in BOLD the subject of what the website is talking about. Underneath the bold description would normally be a couple sentences of what will be talked about if I click on that website. NOW, I can’t read the subject or description because they’re on top of one another (at least the first line of each result). What’s that about???
Thanks for sharing. iOS 16.6 is out. does it help?
